THE AHGTJ9, TUESDAY, FEJTOTJAltY 24. 1903;
TALES OF THEATRE
l.ose Coghlan and her company
&ave an artistic interpretation of
l'inero's "The Second Mrs. Tanque
ray" at the Illinois theatre last evening-.
The story hinges on the ntar
Tiage of a woman with a past to a
widower with an innocent daughter
of 19 who instinctively understands
the early career of her foster-mother
and shuns her. The daughter goes
si way chaperoned by a friend of her
father. On her return she is accom
panied by an English army officer to
whom she has become betrothed. The
officer turns out to be an old flame
of Mrs. Tanqueray, the girl's foster
mother. The old time lovers meet.
There is a scene, the soldier going
away without explanations to his be
trothed. Then Mrs. Tanqueray, dis
couraged in her efforts to bury her
past, and desperate with jealousy of
her husband's child, ends her misery
by suiciding.
It can be readily seen why "King
Dotlo," the reigning comedy opera suc
cess, has achieved so much favorable
criticism from the press and public
alike. "Florotlora" won success from
the sextette, "The nurgomaster" from
"The Tale of the Kangaroo." "The
Wild Hose" from "Nancy IJrown" sung
oy Marie Cahill, "The Defender" from
"!n the (lood Old Summer Time,"
'The Wizard of the Nile" from "Star
light." In fact, many other operas
have gained success from one particu
lar nqmber. but "King Dodo," which
will be seen at the Illinois Wednesday
evening, has a great number of beau
tiful songs, any one of which would
make an ordinary opera successful.
"The Tale of a Iinmble Hee." "Look
in the l'.ouk and See," "I Adore Thee,"
'"The Cat Quartet," "For Love I Live
Alone." "They Have Me a Medal for
That." and many others have all con
tributed their quota in making this
opera the great success it is. The
march number sung by Piola and cho
rus is full of the dash that has made
Snusa's marches famous; and the
She Heard the Sermon.
The First Time in Years After Ueing
Treated by the Do.v Phenomenon.
Story of a Lady Who Was Convinc
ed of the Powers of Magnetism
Against Her Will.
This is an age that craves facts and
facts only ijnd if they are facts and
statements, that can be proven by
someone we' know and whose veracity
is beyond question, then they obtain
the attention of the afflicted who are
in search of health.
Especially is this true as regards
medical and scientific facts, which
admit of no question of verity. Of
Ihis class none presents more con
clusive evidence of claim to world
wide acceptance than the principles
of vital magnetism. 1 he magmlvcent
demonstrations by the l?oy Phenome
non of these principles at the theatre
three weeks ago have aroused intense
interest among our most intelligent
and educated citizens.
That this interest is becoming wide
spread is shown by the great number
of patients that throng his private
parlors at the Harper house, wh'ch
is the theatre of transformations and
restorations -of health and' changed
conditions that vie in gravity and
true pathos with the finest dramatic
effects of stage" history. The success
ful treatment, of jratients at his pri
vate office is even more marked than
at the opera house, for here there are
no obstacles to contend with beyond
their respective afflictions, so that the
cures are as rapid as permanent,
while no case fails to receive the
greatest possible benefit at his hands.
The following statement from Mrs.
Catherine IWytlie. of 1523 Fourth ave
nue, whose case is especially interest
ing because of the startling rapidity
of her cure, due to the unusual sus
ceptibility of her system in receiving
magnetism. She says:
"To the Afflicted: In justice to this
system of magnetic healing, and out
of gratitude to the Tloy Phenomenon
for the recovery of . my hearing, I
make this statement: Some years
ago I began losing my hearing
through catarrh, and have ever since
been so deaf that I could hardly hear
a sound, and aim suffered with those
terrible head noises. I tried a num
ber of different treatments, but could
get no relief whatever and was' told
that my case was incurable. During
these years I attended church, but
1 was never able to hear a word of
the sermon. Three weeks ago I was
persuaded to try the treatment of the
loy Phenomenon, which I (lid to my
great joy. as 1 can now hear the
clock strike and the voices of my
friends in ordinary conversation, and
the noises are all gone; and last Sun
day I attended the P.aptist church,
and, thank (lod, I heard every word
of a good sermon for the first time
in years, and that from the rear seat.
I have been asked many times to tell
how it was accomplished, but I can
not; T wish I could. All I know is
that for years I was deaf, the Poy
Phenomenon treated me with his
hands and now I hear.
"Respectfully.
"CATHERINE P.LYTI1E."
The Poy Phenomenon' not only
treats such cases as the above, but
nearly all chronic diseases yield to
animal magnetism at the hands of
this phenomenal roagnetist.
The Boy Phenomenon has again
prolonged his stay here, therefore
those who wish to take advantage of
his presence here should lose no time
calling, as no new patients will be
taken after , this week. Office hours

.The Castle Square
Opera compariy counts among its
many successes "The Sultan of Sulu,"
by George Ade, whose Fables in Slang
have placed him among the foremost
writers of the time, and "Peggy from
Paris," also from the pen of the
gifted author. Another success is
"The Prince of Pilzen," by Pixley &
Luders, authors of "King Dodo " "The
Prince of Pilzen" has broke all rec
ords for hot weather amusements in
Boston this season, where it ran the
entire summer season at the Tremont
theatre. The Grand English opera
company now in its eighteenth annual
tour. "King Dodo" has many
recruits from the Grand Op
era company. and the chorus
is one which Henry AY. Savage, the
manager of the Castle Square Opera
compauy. has chosen with great care.
Theatregoers will certainly enjoy
their singing and beauty show. "King

of the pat season, at Daly's theatre.

As Glory Qunvlc in "'Hie Christian,"
Clara .lilandick has won much praise
for her fijne interpretation of the most
difficult role. Miss Blariclrick has a
most winning personality, is young
and attractive in 'appearance, enter
ing into the spirit of the part with
realism which at once captivates an
audience. The entire cast of "The
Christian" is said to be in most capa
ble hands, and in the presentation
Friday night at the Illinois the pro
duction will be complete in scenery
and accessories, forming a perfect
role.
"The Tyranny of Tears" will be pro
duced here next. Sunday. Haddon
Chambers, the author, describes the
play as a comedy of tcmerament.
It had an extended run at the Criteri
an, London, and the cast chosen to
interpret the play by Jules Murry is
an unusually excellent one. .with Paul
Gilmore in the part formerly played
by Sir Charles Wvndnani.
